Shadows In Durango

Chapter 72

*****Sofia's POV*****

Glancing around at the small private jet, I was stunned to realise in that moment just how much money Vincent and has family must actually have...

The plush leather white seats complimented by the navy blue accents spoke of a life of luxury themselves, accompanied by the stocked up snack and drink bar. "You good?" He asks, seated opposite me as I nod and glance out of the window as the pilot begins to steer the plane around the track in preparation for take off. When we had left Vincent's place, Daryl's car was gone - I'm assuming maybe that he went to school - which helped to make our exit a little less stressful.

Showering wasn't great this morning either, as I gently washed my hair to avoid hurting my head any further, and after letting it air dry, I was thankful it had fell straight on its own as usual.

"I'm good." I smile, reaching down to ensure that my belt was tight enough as the anxiety of flying crept up on me - hearing the engines roar to life.

"It's a couple of hours, there's a bed in the back if you want a nap once we are in the air." Vincent offers, as I push a strand of hair behind my ear and nod slowly.

Hearing my phone vibrate, I pick it up to find Emma's name flashing up on the screen.

Crap! We are just about to take off, I'll have to call her back when we land!

Typing out a text message quickly, I send:

'About to fly, I'll call you in a couple of hours when we land!x'

To which it appears as 'read' the second it goes through which suggests that Emma was already on our text chat after I had hung up.

"Everything ok?" Vincent asks, his brows furrowed with worry as I nod and smile up at him before my eyes dart back down to find her response come through.

'Daryl said that Vincent kneed you in the stomach last night, what the hell happened????!!!! ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE GOOD? Please do call me ASAP - I love you!x'
